g...gumi...........
As much as I would love to keep up the bit and give this game another 5 star rating like I did with Project Mirai, I have to be honest eventually. You can really see what they wanted to do with Megpoid the Music, but unfortunately it did not go well in the slightest.
To get the good out of the way first, it's GUMI. I love her very much. The song selection is surprisingly pretty good, even if it's only 30 quick songs. Ten-Faced is great, Mozaik Role is obviously a fantastic inclusion, Life Reset Button look I can't just clog this review with GUMI songs. If you're a fan of her, you're gonna like what you find here. If you're not, this is a really good way to become one.
This would all be fine and good if the actual gameplay that accompanied each song was fun as well. This game suffers from some pretty horribly timed charting, half the time I couldn't even tell what they were trying to do. Not all of it, mind you. When a majority of the rhythm game isn't fun to play, you appreciate the decent-good charts a hell of a lot more, but that's a very rare occasion.
Sucks to see this is the only game of her own. I didn't hate it, but I can't call it good. Maybe one day she'll have her comeback, I just want to see Gumi thrive for once.
anyway hey while you're here

Oh hey, a GUMI game! It's not as polished as PD, but still pretty fun to play, although the songs are pretty mediocre, at least we have Ama no Jaku!
it... exists
it's alright, i mean i mostly just like the art style
i hope there is never a day where a little robot anime girl sings a song and does a dance in my psp and it doesn't bring me imminence joy.
megpoid the music sharp is flawed. developed by a bunch of beginners by a company that went on to do nothing else, it's bittered by some poor charting and game systems. the pass-fail system and it's connection to the life bar is confusing, and money is a grind to get.
underneath those systems though, is passion. really big first game energy. it's sweet. it's exciting. i was really enjoying unlocking each song and i was excited to see what was next. the songlist here is really good! a great mix of popular tracks and hidden gems. the outfits are cute. gumi is really cute doing her dancey dance. at the end of the day, the word is cute. not polished, not a genre standout, not for everyone, but for dedicated vocal synth or rhythm game fans the amount of love and content put into this project will make you smile. i left happy, and loving gumi even a little bit more than the massive amount i already did.
